Seeing the undead densely scattered all over the castle, little Sam's attempt to stand up gave way, and he fell down again with a "plop". His feet were like pedals, rubbing back, trying to stay away from the castle. .
However, before little Sam could take a few steps back, he stopped.
He didn't stop voluntarily, but several malicious eyes stared at him.
As a mortal who has never had extraordinary experiences before, little Sam discovered for the first time that malicious eyes can also make people feel powerful... His hands and feet seemed to be shackles, and he could feel it with a slight movement. To the creepy back chill.
When little Sam's face turned pale and his whole body was shaking, Angel's voice reached his ears.
"The undead are naturally suppressive of humans with weak blood." Angel said, walking up to little Sam: "Your blood is not weak, but unfortunately you are too young, and you are still restrained by the undead. of."
When explaining Little Sam's doubts, Angel also blocked the eyes of the undead from looking at Little Sam.
Little Sam felt that the suffocating air was slightly relieved.
However, as soon as little Sam finished breathing, he felt the ground shake slightly. He lowered his head in confusion, looking at the wet ground stained by water vapor, wondering what had happened.
Could it be an earthquake? As soon as this thought flashed through Little Sam's mind, he noticed a large number of black threads coming out of the ground, accompanied by a stench that was so strong that it made Little Sam want to vomit.
The black threads were like weeds, and in an instant, they surrounded little Sam and Angel.
"What are these black threads? Why do they look a bit like...hair?" Little Sam exclaimed.
"This is indeed hair, but it is not the hair of a living person, but the filth of the dead." Angel has had a lot of contact with the undead. He had only a little understanding of their methods before, but after Nice's popular science, he was able to confirm that these Hair must be a dead gas in the soul's wiles.
However, the death gas needs a medium, and generally speaking, the medium is the undead itself; or, the corpse of the dead.
Angel sensed that there were no undead underground. In other words, the medium of death gas was corpses.
Such dense hair also means that there should be many corpses buried in this vast ground.
"What should we do?" Little Sam shivered and looked at the hair around him. They are intertwined and intertwined, like living tentacles, weaving a cage or a coffin for their funeral.
Little Sam: "If I run away, will they come after me?"
Angel: "I don't know whether we will pursue you or not. But why run away?"
"What will we do if we don't run away?" Little Sam asked subconsciously.
"Wouldn't it be nice to just kill them?" Angel said in a calm tone that little Sam couldn't believe: "It's rare to encounter undead materials, but it's a pity that there are a little bit. If you want to make up for it, I'll probably end up with it. Need to go to the Sea of Ghosts.”
Undead material? Sea of the Dead? When little Sam heard Angel's words, his body trembled unconsciously. He didn't know what these terms were, but just by reciting them, he felt overwhelming and suffocating.
The moment Angel's voice fell, an orange-red flame floated in front of him. This flame was not visible at first, but as soon as it touched his hair, it seemed to be helped by the spring breeze, and in an instant it Spreads to all surrounding hair strands.
In the blink of an eye, the cage woven by hair disappeared.
There were only ashes of dead things on the ground and lingering smoke.
As the smoke rose, a terrifying howl suddenly sounded. Little Sam only saw the undead female at the door rushing toward Mr. Pat, and then the howl stung his brain and made him dizzy.
The howl of the undead woman was just an introduction, and soon, the surroundings were filled with roars one after another.
This is the howl of the undead, an attack against mental power and soul.
Unfortunately, it has no effect on Angel.
However, little Sam was affected, covering his head and screaming. Angel casually threw him a mental defense shield, allowing him to breathe again.
Angel didn't show a trace of fear when facing the undead coming towards him. When the female undead was about to fly in front of him, he pressed the trigger of Reincarnation Prelude.
As a semi-mysterious thing, Reincarnation Overture is simply unreasonable restraint on the undead.
This female undead is not weak, even if she is a peak apprentice, she may not be able to deal with her easily. However, under the blow of the prelude to reincarnation, there was no room for maneuver and it turned into blue smoke. Moreover, several undead souls rushed behind the female undead, and they were also affected and died together.
Little Sam, who witnessed this scene, was shocked and noticed that when the female undead died, her true face was revealed.
"This is...mother's maid, Maid Isa?!"
After Angel heard what little Sam said, he raised his eyebrows: "Oh? It turns out that he was transformed into a servant of your family. Do you know this person too?"
While Angel was killing the incoming undead, he still had time to create an illusion, which showed the appearance of a man.
It is the undead that was hidden in the statue of Queen Rowling before.
Little Sam looked at the man in the illusion carefully, and he saw a bit of his mother's appearance between his eyebrows and eyes: "This... this is Count Roland, my mother's brother!"
"So he is your relative?" Angel said with a look of sudden realization: "No wonder, he can possess you so easily. It turns out that there is a natural blood relationship as a bridge."
This kind of possession, with blood as the medium, is much simpler than possession by soul tricks.
"So do you know the other people here?" Angel pointed to the undead surrounding him that were attacking him.
Although these undead still have a terrifying appearance with teeth and claws, their faces still vaguely bear certain characteristics of their lives. Little Sam carefully identified them for a while and said: "A few are servants of the previous family, but I don't recognize most of them." .”
For example, little Sam had never seen the undead being destroyed by Angel at this time.
"The undead's clothes have some characteristics of his life, and there are a lot of tool bags... he probably came to the castle to steal property." Angel judged from the undead's clothes.
From this point of view, it is estimated that most of the undead here are visitors who covet the castle's property. They may be thieves, adventurers, or just passers-by.
No matter what they were in life, they turned into the ghosts of the castle after death, attacking and killing visitors one after another.
In just one minute, Angel killed five or six undead. The other undead were floating in the air, staring at Angel with hatred and malice, ready to pounce at any time.
Angel then turned to look at little Sam: "Don't you want to go to the castle to see it? You can go now."
Little Sam looked at the undead around him and trembled: "But, the undead..."
"Don't worry, all the undead are here. There are no undead in the castle. If you want to take a look, just go in now."
Little Sam: "Are there really no undead?"
Angel: "No."
Angel didn't lie. He used his mental power to sense that there were indeed no undead inside the castle, but... although the undead were gone, there were a lot of corpses.
However, these corpses are dead objects and will not move. At most, they will be shocked when they see them.
Seeing Angel's determination, little Sam thought for a while and rushed towards the door. When he came to the castle this time, he planned to take a look inside; and, outside, it might affect Mr. Pat's performance.
After little Sam pushed open the castle door and disappeared, Angel then looked at the undead around him.
At this time, all the undead turned their heads in the direction of the castle.
"Is that really the case?" Angel looked at the strange scene in front of him and thought to himself.
Previously, the undead possessing little Sam did not attack Angel immediately, but rushed into the castle. Angel felt it was a bit weird, which was not in line with the characteristics of the undead.
At that time, he was wondering if there was anything strange in the castle.
He scanned the inside of the castle with his mental power, but did not find any extraordinary traces in the castle.
Now, he asked Little Sam to go to the castle. All the undead were immediately attracted by Little Sam and even gave up their hatred of Angel. This obviously proved once again that there was something suspicious in the castle.
"If there is a problem, what is it?"
Angel looked at the old castle. This abandoned castle standing at the junction of dawn and darkness suddenly became mysterious.
While Angel was looking at the castle, all the surrounding undead gave up attacking Angel and instead flew towards the castle at extremely fast speeds, obviously preparing to chase little Sam.
Upon seeing this, Angel snapped his fingers, and fog immediately filled the area near the castle.
Under the cover of the mist and illusion, all the undead are unable to break into the real castle. Once they enter the warning range of the castle, they will be guided to Angel's vicinity.
One after another, they all appeared around Angel.
But even so, the undead still rushed towards the castle perseveringly.
"You actually ignored me." Angel shrugged: "Although it feels a little subtle, it's not bad, at least it doesn't take so much effort."
Angel raised the Prelude to Reincarnation and aimed at the undead rushing towards the castle with their backs turned to him.
After a few shots, the fog dissipated.
All undead souls were destroyed and purified.
In fact, Angel could keep one and use the special effects of the Reincarnation Prelude to return the undead to normal and ask questions about the castle; but after thinking about it, he decided not to.
It's not worth wasting special effects on these undead.
After completely wiping out the undead, Angel did not enter the castle, but stood there and closed his eyes.
Through his mental power, he observed little Sam in the castle.
After little Sam entered the castle, except for being startled by the corpses piled up in the hall at first, he was calm the rest of the time. Moreover, little Sam showed that he was very familiar with the castle. He took a few shortcuts and arrived at a room on the fourth floor.
Such familiarity shows that little Sam has indeed lived here.
The room that little Sam went to was obviously a woman's boudoir. Little Sam's emotions showed ups and downs in this room, especially when he saw the oil painting covered with dust and cobwebs on the wall, he seemed to have lost his soul.
Standing in front of the oil painting, little Sam brushed off the dust on the oil painting, stared at the people in the oil painting, and shed tears silently.
In the oil painting is a very gentle-looking woman, whose eyebrows and eyes are quite similar to that of little Sam. Angel guessed that this person should be little Sam's mother.
Little Sam stayed in his mother's room for a long time.
Touching the items that my mother had used in the past, her eyes were a little blurry, as if she was recalling the past. After a long time, little Sam left the room.
Little Sam went to a few more rooms, but judging from his expression, it seemed that he was just reminiscing about the past.
About fifteen minutes later, little Sam came down from upstairs.
Angel thought that Little Sam would leave the castle, but he didn't. Instead, he went around a corner and activated some secret mechanisms, and a downward path appeared on the wall.
At the end of the path is a secret room underground.
Angel discovered this place when he was exploring the castle before. He also looked carefully. There were a large number of artworks in the secret room, including sculptures, paintings, and musical instruments.
According to Angel's level of appreciation, these works of art are definitely masterpieces.
It is estimated that so many master works of various categories can only be seen in the art capital of Saint-Selme City. People here, both commoners and nobles, are keen on art. I think little Sam's mother is also an art collector.
Every piece of work here can be sold for a sky-high price.
Angel had thought before that if little Sam didn't know about this secret room, he would tell him. Firstly, it prevents the masterpieces from being covered in dust; secondly, these works of art can also allow little Sam to live a good life.
But now that I think about it, there is no need for it.
Little Sam obviously knew about this secret room, and his strong request to come to the castle this time was probably because of the art works in the secret room.
"The picture of the girl holding daisy spikes is so beautiful. If old Pat was still here, he would probably be crazy about this picture. And the sculpture of the goddess sleeping soundly on the moon, it is simply amazing..." Ange I observed these works of art with my mental strength and praised them repeatedly.
When he was observing the artwork, he noticed from the corner of his eye that although little Sam came to the secret room, he did not look at the artwork. Instead, he walked to a corner, did something unknown, penetrated the wall, and disappeared. .
Angel was stunned when he saw this scene.
Is there a room behind the wall in the secret room? !
Angel quickly used his mental power to search, but found that there was nothing. Behind the wall is a thick layer of soil with no rooms.
Little Sam seemed to disappear directly.
"Where did he go?" Angel was confused and focused his mental power on the wall where little Sam disappeared.
This time, Angel finally discovered something strange.
A pattern drawn with blood.
The style of the pattern is a combination of a large number of geometric figures.
"It's not a magic pattern, and it doesn't have energy fluctuations. It's a bit like... an inscription?"
